Atrl has become far too strict.

Avoiding WP's is similar to trying not to step on a mine in a minefield.

At this point, virtually any joke will land you a surprise private message.

And, as I found out last week, typing "sh*t" will also result in a WP, for profanity.

Oh yea, can't forget about the heaps of threads that get closed down for obscure rules, despite being entirely valid.

I like the rules in place, but members are way too sensitive to negative opinions & mods don't seem to know how to use their discretion fairly or objectively, especially when dealing with obvious sarcasm or light-hearted jokes. It's Pop - Not politics. Relax a bit.

yes.

and THATS the thing why is nicknames so bad? thats been a issue since day one...but luckly I don't use nicknames but question is riri okay?

It would be great if mod's typed in a reason as the last post for why they closed a thread, especially since 1/2 of them seem perfectly fine, leaving one confused as to why they were closed.

Recent closures that confused me:

-The CRTFY behind the scenes video preview thread.
Seriously, what rule could this thread have been breaking?

-The "trans girls wins lawsuit" .
Nothing but intelligent discussion taking place, but it was closed, for whatever rule it seems to have
violated lol.

Yeah. Most of the time saying your own opinion (if it's not totally favorable) is considered flamebait

!!!

i feel like i have to post everything positive

Yes.

Gotten to the point where the rules only permit the same dull, tasteless crap. This place isn't even remotely entertaining anymore.

Yes I get a warning point for everything now.

Yes, you can't give your opinion on this forum.

yes. everything you say is 'shade' even when its not.

I used too think so butwith the time you figure out how to avoid points.
and its too funny to watch certain members struggle their way into banland

Users are too sensitive. Some users on here wouldn't survive in the real world.

It's too much. I've been here for years but right now is just

I received a wp for celebrating Katy's 9th #1 with 'too many gifs'. Mess.

No you just have to learn how to throw undercover shades on your posts.
